The latest high-definition cinema presentation of a live theater production takes in one of the heavyweights: “The Phantom of the Opera.” The Andrew Lloyd Webber-composed musical, which had its New York premiere in 1988, is by far the longest-running show in Broadway history. But it has lasted even longer in London.

That’s where a 25th-anniversary “Phantom” celebration takes place — and the Oct. 2 event at Royal Albert Hall, featuring some 200 performers and orchestra members, will be beamed to movie theaters worldwide. They include five in San Diego County: AMC’s Mission Valley and La Jolla Village locations, the Edwards Mira Mesa 18 and San Marcos 18, and the UA Horton Plaza cinemas downtown.

The live show starts at 11 a.m. at each theater. (There also will be encore screenings at some locations Oct. 5 and 11.) For information and tickets, go to fathomevents.com.
